A song which is one of my favorite not because of its euphony but the meaning which really makes us think. It is "Time of your life" from Green Day. The best lines were,
"Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time"
Definitely its time which influences your decision apart from your attitute, passion and whatever.
Its time which makes you decide something which you think you would never render in life.
Its time which tests you giving us varied situations and makes us pass varied people with a spectrum of characters.
So its all about expecting minimum out of the world and time will take care of the rest.
It definitely will be a lesson learned in time and in the end its right.....

Senseless Timeout !!!!
The T20 version of the crazy game is infact not accepted by many and ofcourse even I am not fully for it. T20 is introduced definitely to improve the commercial of the game. It has reduced the original charm of Test Cricket. People started moving towards the T20 from the original version and the oldest version of the game, the TEST CRICKET only because they are entertained more.But entertainment is not the only thing about cricket. True fans think in a different way. To add to that, IPL has announced a new rule called "time out" which is completely alien to the game. A time out of about 7.5 mins after every 10 overs of which two 2.5 mins will be commercials and remaining 2.5 mins to show team drinks and their tactics, startegy discussion. Why do we need to know what they talk?. The strategy will be surely reflected when they play. And who knows they dont even show what they talk and they ll only broadcast the useless cheerleaders dancing to hinder men from changing the channel. It is undisputedly driven to meet commercial objectives. Is it a basketball game where time-out is much more prelevant and where players get exhausted unlike games like cricket. Cricket surely has gone beyond control. People are changing the face of the game and its values are depleting.

3 mistakes of my life !!!
I recently completed reading a book called "the 3 mistakes of my life" by Chetan Bhagat, author of the famous "Five point someone". And fortunately the last 3 books (including this) I read, belong to Indian fiction genre. Out of the three, one was "Malgudi Days - Swami and his Friends" by RK Narayan. I am totally attracted towards Indian fiction since the feel was more real, and ofcourse more "Indian". I strongly felt that the two books does not fit under fiction genre since the reality was truly prominent in these books. Coming back to "the 3 mistakes of my life", the primary reason why I liked the book is that the story revolves around cricket and I was able to closely relate myself to one of the character. As I read through the book, I started digging my past to know what were the 3 major mistakes I have done in my life. Suprisingly, I was not able to recollect any and whichever I thought was the mistake, it wasnt a major blunder. I felt that life has treated me in a better way though not in the best way. The 3 mistakes or rather 3 important decisions that made my life different from what it could have been are,
1). Passion v/s Parents
2). Friends v/s Studies
3). India v/s Abroad
Though these decisions do not have any negative impact on my life, I felt that these were quite important when I look back.

Men in White in flying colors !!!
Its been a long awaited series win for the Men in white, about 41 yrs. Since 1968 the Indians have been trying to register a series win in NZ soil. A lot of former captains have failed in their mission but Captain cool Mr. MSD along with others have finally made the dream of 1 billion come true. MSD have definitely made the Indian cricket fo a level up. Not long ago were the Indian cricketers would want draw a test match when they have already won a series, but before the start of the fourth day, MSD in the press meet told that they want to go for the kill. This shows how ruthless he is in his approach when he asked to chase 616. This could have easily been a 2-0 series but the culprits (rain and faded light) made the black caps not worry much. But never mind, it is a series win and all cricket fans will go gaga over this. Though the experience of the seniors in the team helped clinch the series, I felt today that there is definitely a new bond that exists in the team only because of MSD which was missing in the past years. Now there is definitely much pressure on the Indians to sustain this winning habit. But i feel captain cool will ignore the pressure, enjoy cricket and win more series for India.

Utter Nonsense !!.. What do u say ????
I was browing and found this article (see the link). I felt that this should be definitely voiced out.
http://in.movies.yahoo.com/specials/Kareena-queen-of-Bollywood/Bollywood/slideshow-189.html
My opinion is that why the hell do people spend so much for such a use less thing which they ll show in the silver screen for not more than 3 to 4 mins.. Why can t this money be spent on something else may be for some welfare activity.. I accept that movies have become an entertainment tool from what was considered as an "Art", but this is rediculous.. This shows how much people think they are powerful and use these for nonsense things ... What do you say ???
